Witelli 0 #26 July 23, 2005 QuoteI wasnt on the ground more than 5 minutes,and I was grounded for 2 days Hey think of it this way, there was no jumping the next two days due to weather, so you didn't miss out on much. Also, being a newbie who was hoping to jump that weekend, I learned something from your mishap and I'm sure others did too. The main thing is that noone got hurt. Now let's look forward to the August boogie!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
el_chester 4 #27 February 12, 2007 QuoteI will look up the video and probably post it on skydivingmovies.com. When I do I'll post back here. Better late than never... (Plus we can learn from this incident, no matter that it happened a while ago) Here is the full video. And here it is at full DV res (only the 3 seconds when the canopy opens), so that you can do all the "video forensics" of the incident that you like. I also found this video of the same kind of incident (maybe even the one discussed in this thread???). Edited to add: To open the full-res DV version after downloading from skydivingmovies.com, I had to rename the file by changing the extension from .mov to .dv -- Be careful giving advice. Wise men don't need it, and fools won't heed it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
